47-year-old arrested for impregnating minor in Ogun

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Ogun State Command, has arrested a 47-year-old man, Muraino Lasisi, for allegedly defiling and impregnating a 14-year-old girl in Abeokuta.

The command’s spokesperson, Mr Dyke Ogbonnaya, confirmed the arrest in a statement issued on Saturday.

According to Ogbonnaya, the suspect was apprehended by officers of the corps at the Oke-Sokori area of the state capital following a tip-off from a concerned neighbour.

He said officers of NSCDC arrested the suspect where he allegedly committed the crime.

“After his arrest and during interrogation, Lasisi made a confessional statement admitting to the offence,” Ogbonnaya said, adding that the suspect would face prosecution upon completion of investigation.

“After a thorough investigation of the matter, the command made an application for the suspect to be remanded in the correctional service for 60 days pending legal advice from the Director of Public Prosecutions, which was granted,” he said.
